Enjoy Farm Fresh Food In Hillsdale, New Jersey 4.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 23, 2018) I love living in Hillsdale, New Jersey. It is a wonderful place to live. I enjoy the peace and serenity of our wonderful community. The shopping in town is great! When I first moved there, I found everything I needed for my new place. The restaurants in town are awesome. On the w ...Read More eekends, they are buzzing and welcoming. During the week, there are many professionals and singles enjoying a leisurely meal after work.

There are many young families as well, because the schools have an excellent reputation in Hillsdale. Demarest Farm has wonderful fresh food. It's so beautifully presented, and you will love going there just to look around! For a bit of luxury, I love the Mezzaluna Day Spa. Hillsdale is in a great location, and commuting to work is made simple by car or bus! I enjoy the nightlife in Hillsdale. There are clubs, pubs, and coffee and tea shops. I have met some of the nicest people here! Read Less
